Has anyone left Morgan Stanley after parental leave? Can you quit right after leave is over for another job or do you have to put in your two weeks first? Also can you use your vacation after you put your two weeks in?

Happy to report: Did not fall into any honey trap at the holiday party.

Tips for someone that’s trying to get pregnant but struggling with fertility issues

What are some easy to make, low stress holiday meals for a school holiday staff party? I was "volunteered" by our principal to set it up this year (🙄). I'm making decorated sugar cookies but kind of drawing a blank when it comes to savory dishes. Bonus points if you have any adult holiday themed games or fun drinks to suggest! It's off school property and there will be a bar (thank god), for context.

Hi friends, looking for some advice. I am currently in India due to a family health emergency for my mom. She is still critical and don’t have a good timeline on returning to work. I have taken pto but that will soon be over. What are my options? Will LOA impact my immigration status? I am on H1B.

Aside from all the usual benefits like paid vacation time, health insurance, 401k matching program, have you ever seen a truly unique business perk?

Hardest part of navigating maternity leave and WLB as a junior partner?

Hey friends! I hope everybody has had a productive week and had an awesome weekend for those who enjoyed their holiday! This question is specifically for Amazon Web Services in sales.

So I am currently a potential candidate as an AAE. I was told that I would in the future have to prepare a mock deck and deal with objections.

Has anybody had to prepare them and what was the scenario?

Thanks everyone!

Hello! I’m based in NYC and looking for my next role. I work in the digital strategy/brand strategy space. I have experience across multiple industries (tech/telecom/Pharma (dermatology)/beauty and skin care and I am looking for a Director or VP role (my last job was a VP). I would like to keep my base of at least $180k (is this reasonable if I look for Director positions too?) Would love to land something soon before we hit the holiday season. Do you think what I am looking for is reasonable?

How VISA in terms of flexibility and work Internationally on remote, do they allow to work from India during the holiday travel?

Hey guys… I’m a case worker in child safety and I’m someone who loves being outdoors/dies at a desk all day. I’m hoping to organise that at least once a week I can go to a cafe and catch up on all my case notes that need to go into the system.
So far the only reason I’ve been told no is that “if you do then everyone will want to and then no one will be in the office” … how can I convince them that I work better out of the office and get this freedom & mental break for myself?

Recieved a verbal offer from Deliotte and a written offer from a teaming partner firm. Told Deloitte and asked for the offer in writing. Felt like it was a dont put baby in the corner moment..(cont)

I am so beyond ready to leave my current job, but can’t yet, since bonuses are paid out in January. 😬

In the meantime, I’ve applied to a lot of similar roles (slightly higher) but have not heard - good or bad - from any. Is it common for companies to slow down hiring in December because of Q4 rush, people on holiday, etc.?

Is it hard to find job with 1.5yoe ?
Or it is only me.

We’ll have live music back at least by July of next year... right?

I have a case I have enough evidence on to go to summery judgement on off the gate. Procedurally what's the best way to go a out this? D's are unrepresented and extremely difficult about settlement talks.

How much of your income (%) regardless of savings rate would you spend for a house renovation?
We are moving into a house but it needs to be remodeled. Finally no more rent and no mortgage

HNY all! I have multiple rollover and traditional IRAs, as well as a solo 401k. But (since I started paying attention to this kind of thing) have always been over the income limit to start a Roth IRA. I’ve also not done much contributing in the last few years due to purchasing an apartment and saving for renovations. Cue pandemic joblessness... if married filing separately, would you say it’s a good idea to start a Roth while under the income limit, even in this climate? Any reason not to?

Did anyone here test positive for COVID after atleast one shot of vaccine?

First toilet paper, now it’s flour, yeast and baking products. Why is instant yeast 10x more expensive on amazon?! Is everyone really trying their hand at baking now? What happened to rice and pasta?

Does it make sense for me to acquire a portfolio of small margin-rich businesses but currently in duress due to COVID? I have $1.3M liquid earning 2% in a HY savings act - offer cash to owners for eq?

Will the 4th of July become an end of Coronavirus party? I feel like those celebrations will, realistically, be the effective end of lockdown. They can take our (small f) freedom, but not our FREEDOM 🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸

People who have transitioned from consulting to industry or an objectively less demanding role (i.e working 40-45 hrs a week), what makes you feel good about your decision? After a decade in client services, I’m reaching a breaking point and can’t see consulting being sustainable with a young family. But I’m so achievement-driven that I’m having a hard time taking my foot off the gas; I know seeing peers advance once I’ve stepped away will be hard. For context, I’m F and ~8 yrs away from Partner

Okay! So I love my job! LOVE IT. But I am actually struggling to have that boundary between work and life… since COVID I shut off and tv has been my downtime. But now I only work and watch tv and sleep. I’ve been trying to get a hobby, but I’m not motivated… I get home and I want to keep working. Any tips to create that work life balance?

Can the Chopped kitchen really not splurge on an extra ice cream maker or deep fryer?

People who work in NYC: how do you feel about taking trains or the subway to work if shelter in place ends by end of May?

How do you let a director know it’s really not professional to keep re-scheduling the meeting? This is the 4th time a new time is proposed. And it’s one of my pet peeves.

Was at dinner with my mom yesterday and we got into an argument about me not wanting to tell her how much my salary is. I had no problem telling my parents right out of college but just feel kind of weird about it as I progress in my career. She said I am getting a big head and I replied that the exact reason I don’t want to tell her how much I make is because I don’t want to brag/ have a big head. Should I tell my parents how much I make for the rest of my life? Am I over thinking it?

Thoughts on pneumatic vs. electric standing desks? Does extra weight make pneumatic desks any more difficult to operate?

Recommendations between 4K vs. 1440p for a 27” or 32” monitor? Not concerned about gaming so either should be fine at 60hz. Is there a discernible difference at the 27” size if I’m sitting 2-3ft away?

Reading “the call” posts on LinkedIn is a cold reminder to be grateful for having a job. Too many career employees who gave their prime years to their employers are having to face a daunting job market. I pray many of them land on their feet, and truly hope they don’t face too much age discrimination. Any one of us could be or has been in similar shoes....
